What is OAV Roller Air Bearing?The OAV Roller Air bearing is designed to replace conventional bearings. The roller bearing is hard installed at a fixed location. The result: no friction, no contact, requires no maintenance, indefinite operating life, and no heat generation at high speeds.

Our design forces the flow in the direction of the frictionless surface. This results in higher stiffness, more stability, and better damping properties.]]>http://www.oavco.com/faq/index.php?action=artikel&cat=7&id=11&artlang=en
Thu, 08 Mar 18 18:49:00 +0100 +0100How fast can a bearing rotate?Clasic Bearings work to help one surface slide along another by minimizing the points of friction between the two. Imagine sliding a puck across a hockey table without using the air . There's friction at all points where the puck is touching the surface. But if you turn the air on, Suddenly that puck is racing across the table.
